Hi all,

I'm looking for suggestions on how to proceed in configuring ipsec in
Slackware. I'm not necessarily looking for documentation (I've found it
in droves), but for ideas on how long each general route to ipsec might
take, and how difficult one path might be relative to the others. There
are certainly many options:

--Patch the 2.4 kernel, patch 2.6 with KLIPS, or use 2.6's native ipsec?
--Openswan, FreeS/WAN, ipsec-tools?

Mix-n-match to your delight (some options won't work, but most will),
and I've got quite a few choices. Right now I'm leaning towards native
2.6 ipsec with Openswan, but I don't have a lot of experience with 2.6.
OTOH, my last go with ipsec a few years back was with 2.4, and it didn't
go so well, so I'm wary there, too.

If it makes any difference, one end of the ipsec tunnel will (likely) be
an OS X Tiger box. I've seen less documentation on OS X <-> linux
ipsec, but enough that my options should not be too limited.
